A member asked:
What does erythema in the whole stomach compatible with erosive gastritis mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Color: Erythema means redness and erosive gastritis is a serious exacerbation of that. As an example erythema can be a very mild sun burn and erosion would be akin to a 3rd degree burn
